The Racy 1920s Anthem That Shook the Underground

By 1928, the Jitterbug Jills were already the talk of the underground scene, with their songs echoing through every speakeasy from Boston to New York. 🌆
Their cheeky lyrics and tight harmonies made them favorites of the jazz age, with their hit Keep Your Heart On becoming a staple in smoky, backroom clubs. The song was on everyone's lips, and the Jills were poised for even greater heights. 🎶
Enter Charles "King" Solomon, Boston's top bootlegger and a man with cash to burn. Recognizing the electric live energy of Keep Your Heart On, Solomon spared no expense, bringing in top jazz musicians from New Orleans, Chicago, and Kansas City to capture that very essence on record. 🔊
He also enlisted the most skilled arranger of the time, ensuring the session would deliver the sophistication the Jills were known for. 🎷
After days of hard work and multiple takes, the Jills gave what is now recognized as their most polished and sophisticated vocal performance ever recorded. 🎤
They created a 1920s anthem that shook the Prohibition's underground to its core.
But in 1929, as their fame soared, the Jills' story took a tragic turn on a transatlantic voyage, due to a rogue German U-boat operating in secret defiance of the Treaty of Versailles. In a twist of fate, the music that had made them famous became part of the very event that ended their lives, leaving behind an unfinished legacy. Yet, Keep Your Heart On lives on as a testament to their talent and the brief, dazzling light they cast on the jazz world. 🎩🎵
P.S. (Santa Claus is not real either.)

[Verse 1]
You say you've got a love so strong,But honey, don't you keep me waitin' long.You gotta show me, don't let it slip,Hold on tight, don't lose your grip.
[Chorus]
Oh, baby, keep your heart on, don't let it fade,Keep it burnin', like a sweet serenade.Keep your heart on, don't let it stray,I'll keep mine on you every day.
[Verse 2]
You say that I'm your one and only,But sometimes, sugar, you act kinda lonely.So take a chance, don't play it cool,Keep your heart on me, that's the golden rule.
[Chorus]
Oh, baby, keep your heart on, don't let it fade,Keep it burnin', like a sweet serenade.Keep your heart on, don't let it stray,I'll keep mine on you every day.
[Bridge]
So when the stars are shinin' bright,And you hold me oh so tight,Promise me, no turnin' off,Keep your heart on, keep it strong.
[Chorus]Oh, baby, keep your heart on, don't let it fade,Keep it burnin', like a sweet serenade.Keep your heart on, don't let it stray,I'll keep mine on you every day.
P.S. If you did not realize it yet: the Jitterbug Jills were created with the help of AI.

Recent research has unearthed that Virginia DeBris survived and was rescued by the rogue U-Boat. She went on to marry the skipper who rescued her, Kapitänleutnant Clitfinger. She would have led a secret, happy life until that fateful day at a Nuremberg rally when her flapper dress caught fire from a mishandled flaming torch.

Mate, I'm going back a 100 years... love it! Keep going!

[@WilliamLaurent3]

William. I appreciate the comment. I'm hoping to prove a point about AI and learn some new tools in the process!

[@superfaces]

Very smooth song

[@WilliamLaurent3]

Thanks so much!

[@jimmysmith174]

Thank you for the music and comprehensive note. How tragic for the group to have their lives end due to illegal enemy action between World Wars I and II.

[@WilliamLaurent3]

I appreciate that Jimmy. These comments keep me going!

[@CrampedGrampy]

Those horns are sounding very much in the sound and feel of jitterbug.

[@WilliamLaurent3]

Always excited to wake up and find a comment from the Grampy!

Is this real or AI generated ? Real cool.

[@WilliamLaurent3]

That is supervised AI - some manual effort and AI magic both. I appreciate you.

[@motoguy3574]

If its funny or cute its not IA. IA has not learned those skills yet.

[@WilliamLaurent3]

@@motoguy3574 Thank goodness!

[@WilliamLaurent3]

I know, right!
